Hi from Colorado!

  • Hi - I found this site surfing for nutrition information on basenji's and have found a bunch of helpful advice and just confirmation that what our dog does is normal!

    We have a 1 year old (tomorrow) Basenji mix (with Italian Greyhound) named Gromit after Wallace & Gromit. He has been a handful but just so entertaining and brings so much to our life. He is currently the only dog we own and the first one we've raised from a puppy.

    Anyway, just wanted to say hi and a general thanks.

  • Hi GromitsFamily!
    Its great to have you and happy to hear that your boy is doing fine :)
    Post a picture for us to see and HAPPY BIRTHDAY GROMIT!!!

  • Welcome GromitsFamily to forums…..Just one thing whats ur basenji doing thats normal ... LOL ... they are a handful... I too have Basenji mix... Mix Im unsure of, I was hoping someday the mix would kick in.. so far it hasnt happend.

    I think they just look solid so my mind saw "bigger." I have one of the Wimaumau rescue giants (44 pounds), but even my 2 previous gals were far from petite... about 26 to 28 pounds. My dream of a petite 18 pound basenji just never happened, lol.

    When I 1st got Kirabo, I had named her Hollie. A few mths later my wife told me every time I had a seizure, she would go crazy & wouldn't leave my side. Then 1 night I had a dream & God told me to name her Kirabo which means " a gift from God". She truly is God sent. Kirabo stays by my side & is constantly keeping her eyes on me, always observant of every-thing I do.

    Her name is Mattie and she is a real sweetie. My son brought her home from a mission trip in Appalachia. She has become my shadow and we just can't imagine not having her around.

    Luzambo, I too had one pass last March. After that I was left with one and said once he passed, I was going to be done with dogs – too much of work and emotional strain. Yep, I was going to be free to... well, to do something. Then I found a little girl related to Brie just 2 weeks later and 6 months later I have yet another. Yes, they're a lot of work at times, but so is most everything in life. I love having them around and the house would be often boring otherwise. I'm sure Pharaoh and my Brie are hanging out in their private club looking down on us saying "what are you guys doing down there?" And with a signature like yours, I don't think you'll be waiting long. Welcome to the forum!
